Russian Museum

Here are my selected pictures of the Russian Museum in Saint Petersburg. I chose this museum over the Hermitage when I learned that the Hermitage has virtually no Russian art.
Everything I've done, pondered doing, wished I'd done, and forgotten to do that's fit to print. (Premise for what I try to do: World=Oyster.)

If only I could afford it I would buy this beautiful 100 year old photograph by Wilson A Bentley. (Story here.)

This is an example was my BFA final project (Concordia University, 2000). I photographed shops with a view camera through their windows. Every image has at least a small reflection of the exterior. I've recently done some reprocessing and the entire exhibition is here.

A dear friend just pointed me an amazing and provocative website documenting an art exhibit called Running the Numbers - An American Self-Portrait which I highly recommend. Give it the necessary time to download (if you have to cope with narrow bandwidth the way I do).
One image, for instance "Depicts 30,000 reams of office paper, or 15 million sheets, equal to the amount of office paper used in the US every five minutes."
I won't embed any images here because they need to be viewed on at least your full screen for proper effect. (I'd really love to see the actual exhibition.) Look at the site.
